What sports were you good at when you were younger? For me when I was growing up
I really enjoyed cycling (Both road and mountain)

When I was 13 I started to race on a cycling team I was able to ride up the west side of vail pass in under a half hour (it's a very tough ride) I also did rode up an over Swan pass in under a hour... I was sooooo tired after the Swan pass ride

Keep in mind that there are all types of sports I did not want to do football or baseball so I decided to ride a bicycle..

Keep in mind sports that are not "mainstream"

Swimming
Running
Kayaking ext
Bowling
Skating
Skateboarding
Skiing,
snowboarding. These are just a few examples of sports some people do

When I was younger? I'm still great at sports. Especially football(american), dodgeball(yes I'm counting this), and badminton. I owned at all of those in highschool. The only sport thing I do now is surf though, gonna go snowboarding real soon too. I also enjoy cycling as well.
Edit: I also love swimming and rollerblading.

Football. I would like to say it was based solely on my agility, but a large part of why I rarely got hit when I had the ball was because I knew if I did, i'd get seriously hurt because of my small stature. I was always playing with people at least twice my size, so if I had the ball it was either score a touchdown, or run out of bounds.

I excelled in football and senior year, I gave it up to focus on helping my family and their financial issues and eventually signed up for the military. Not something I truly regret but I do think back on many occasions on what may have happened if I stuck with it.

I played football (American) since I was around 7yrs old. I remember it like it was yesterday. I even got Homecoming King when I was around 9 with a family friend's daughter Mandy as the Homecoming Queen. Her and I dated later on in life but it didn't last, she's more like a sister. I hate topics like this because it makes you relive your past.. I miss the good days, really do.

Nothing really. I was pretty average at everything that I tried... football, cricket, swimming and badminton. Never took sports seriously though. I was more of a couch sportsman but I sucked at them videogames too.

I suck at sports lol I used to do boxing when I was in high school, but it was 99% training, I only had one fight before having to quit because of harder classes sophomore year and got my ass kicked lol I was also pretty good at football I guess, but that's because of all the training in boxing made me pretty buff.

Now the only things you're good at are sitting by the pool and day time drinking I suppose?

I was really good at football, unfortunately no one noticed it except my coach, which made me run box-to-box all day and if anything went wrong he'd blame me, so I quit. Out of the three years I played football, we were champions three times though.

I wouldn't consider myself good at skateboarding, but I did some high-end tricks, mainly by just being an idiot daredevil and I landed them pretty often, but if you ask me to do a varial kickflip, I wouldn't be able to pull it off.

Well, I had luck to grow up in a beautiful, flat suburb. My family has a small house there we moved in in 2005. We lived there until I went to high school in 2011 because of transportation reasons (far from school), but turned out it would be almost same if we stayed there. We live in a flat now, and only on summer we go back to suburb.

Anyways, it's a great place for cycling, jogging and anything else. Me and my brother used to cycle at least about 14 km a day, from home to Spring of Bosna river, which is heaven on the Earth. We'd cycle there, then sit on a bench, screw around and then go back. We sometimes used to sit 2 hours there, doing nothing but chat and enjoy the nature.

Damn man, now you're making me nostalgic.

Used to play rugby and football back when I was in secondary school. I wasn't particularly good, but I developed early so my size/build was an advantage in rugby especially. Rugby was great fun, but as soon as the team started getting good we had to stop playing to the GCSEs, then we all went to different schools and went our separate ways. Sad to say I've never played since.

Playing football with my mates at break times are some of the best memories I have, and, like GunWrath says above, I miss those days.

Like all young British boys, I grew up playing football, rugby and cricket.

I still love all these sports and play football and rugby around 6 times a week in total at university. I absolutely love exercise, keeping fit and testing my body and I know I'll be a sad Sunday league football/Rugby devotee long after my mediocre talent and ropey fitness leaves me.

If you want to chat about it further we can do it through PMs so we don't clutter this topic but the US online poker pros aren't simply setting their country of origin to Canada, they moved. Europe is another popular destination. It's so sad really. I can't even play Texas Holdem online and I live in Texas! At least most, if not all US states, still allow home games. I know for me, as long as the house doesn't have a rake, it's perfectly legal.
